Could My Ribs Be Causing Problems?
I have a problem on my ribs

Orthopaedic Surgery
Answered on 8th Aug '24
From what you are saying, you might have problems with your ribs. This can result from a fall, a strong impact, or even too much coughing. Symptoms include pain in the area when you breathe or move, tenderness, and maybe swelling too. One way of helping is by, of course, rest. Stay away from the activities that you do, which cause more pain. Ice may affect swelling too. Also, pain meds provide some relief. See an orthopedist if the pain continues.

Hi mam/sir I have a injury for my toe little finger and I need some help healing the injury. As I'm a student I can't miss my classes so I need some help from you so that I can healing my injury. Thank you Mam/sir
Female | 22
The toe might be painful, swollen, bruised, or hard to move, which are all the symptoms of a toe injury. To accelerate the recovery process, you may rest, put ice to the swollen area, lift your foot, and use analgesics by mouth if necessary. If pain persists do consult an orthopedist.

I am 34 years old,myself and my partner was kn a car crash last year march. We have physio (thunk it was 8 or 10 sessions) I had stiffness in my neck but after the physio it was fine. Last month my left arm from my shoulder to my elbow really hurts,I struggle to lift my left arm up and sometimes I have to use my right arm to move my left arm as its really painful.
Female | 34
You may have adhesive capsulitis, which is also referred to as a frozen shoulder. This usually occurs after an injury in the shoulder has taken place such as a car accident for example. Pain and stiffness are common symptoms of this condition thereby making it difficult for one to move the affected arm or arms. To alleviate these signs try gentle stretching exercises coupled with warm compresses applied to the painful area.

You must follow up with an orthopedist again to determine if further evaluation is necessary.They may recommend further imaging X-rays or MRI, and may suggest certain treatment or surgery depending on the severity of the condition and any associated symptoms.

I fractured my patella on 7/9/24, and was crap bandge for a week, and I had cast plaster from 15/9/24, plaster was removed on 14/10/24, knee is still swollen, can't bend knee, can't lift leg up, had x-ray, crack is still visible. The doctor said that the bone that is formed now cannot be seen on xray, after three months xray will not show the cracks.
Male | 32
You have a fractured patella. Common symptoms include swelling and difficulty bending or lifting your leg. A visible fracture line on the X-ray means the bone is still healing. Over time, the bone will become stronger, and the cracks will disappear. Continue resting your knee, doing gentle exercises, and consult your orthopedist for guidance. The healing process takes time, but you will recover.

I have pain in lower back since 6 months
Female | 20
Lower back discomfort lasting six months can stem from various factors, including muscle strain, poor posture, or underlying conditions like arthritis. Common symptoms may include stiffness, radiating pain, or difficulty moving. It’s essential to maintain good posture, engage in regular gentle exercises, and apply heat or cold packs to alleviate discomfort. Over-the-counter pain relievers can be helpful as well. However, considering the duration of your symptoms, I recommend consulting a orthopedist for a thorough evaluation.

LEFT SIDE SHOULDER TO ELBOW PAIN
Male | 28
When your arm aches from the left shoulder down to the elbow, take notice of the signs. You may struggle moving it. Swelling and redness could appear. Certain movements worsen the pain. Muscle strain, rotator cuff injury, or arthritis can cause such discomfort. To ease the hurting, rest your arm. Apply ice packs. Do gentle stretches. Avoid heavy lifting too. Activities making pain worse are off-limits. Sometimes physical therapy helps. Medications can help. Consult an orthopedist about your symptoms for personalized guidance.

Pain left thigh since Oct 2022. I fell down from an e-rickshaw while boarding on it. One leg on the rickshaw and another on the ground and I was dragged for about two meters until I fell on the ground. Since then got this pain.
Female | 55
Your left thigh pain since last October might be from that fall. Typical signs are aches, swelling, and leg troubles. You likely strained or bruised thigh muscles during impact. Try resting, icing the spot, and gentle stretches. But if there is no improvement or worse pain, it's wise to visit an orthopedist. They'll check and properly treat the injury.

Male | 42
The discomfort you're experiencing might be connected to your meniscus tear surgery. Sometimes after surgery, our bodies can surprise us by reacting in a way that is not expected. I suggest supportive footwear, practicing targeted stretches for the foot, and taking a vitamin D supplement.

Ma'am cat has bitten to my father in left leg what to do for treatment tell me
Male | 40
The foremost thing is to wash the wound with warm water and soap. Following this, put the dressing on the wound using a new bandage. Check the area around the bite for redness, swelling, warmth, and pus. Each of these might be infection symptoms. You need to visit your healthcare provider if you observe these signs. The main treatments for infections at home are wound cleaning and dressings.

Pain in my neck like a popping sound burns as if acid was thrown
Female | 16
These signs could be from swelling in your neck joints or muscles. At times stress or bad posture can cause these kinds of discomfort, too. To help yourself feel better, you should try doing light neck stretches, putting hot packs on, and keeping good posture while sitting or standing. There’s no need for alarm yet; if it doesn’t get any better consider visiting an orthopedist.

I am a 32 year old woman. The real thing is that for the past few days I have been having pain in my hand and knee and it also gets swollen.
Female | 32
These symptoms may be the result of different diseases (arthritis) or some other injury caused by overuse or fall. You should rest, apply the ice packs, and elevate your hand and knee. Stronger pain and swelling can mean the body is going through a more severe stage and you should consult an orthopedist for further advice and treatment.

Female | 21
Experiencing discomfort can stem from various sources, such as muscle strain, inflammation, or even stress. It's essential to observe if the pain is localized or widespread and whether it worsens with activity or rest. To alleviate symptoms, consider applying ice to the affected area, practicing gentle stretches, and ensuring you maintain proper hydration. Over-the-counter pain relievers might also help. However, if the pain persists or intensifies, it’s crucial to consult a orthopedist for a thorough evaluation and tailored treatment.
